My daughter has been attending this nursery since last year, she always comes home with the biggest smile on her face telling us about what she has done that day. She has come on leaps and bounds with her vocabulary and speech since attending and I believe that this is down to the staff that put so much work in with them. My daughter always comes home with art work that she has done that day, which is lovely. The baby days app is always updated accordingly and prompt and staff always ask how my daughter is before dropping her off for the day to ensure that they can look after her properly. Overall a brilliant nursery and I would recommend it anyone:

My daughter has an amazing time at Shining Stars. She has a really good relationship with the staff and her key worker has worked very closely with her to ensure she's settled. They encourage a lot of outdoor play and learning on all topics and she always comes home with lots of pictures and artwork. I can not thank them enough for the support they give her and my family.

My child has settled in beautifully and is coming along in his development in leaps and bounds. The staff are always pleasant and they try their best to accommodate changing hours, which we are very grateful for.

Our child has been coming to this nursery since August 2024, at first he was apprehensive about going but now he really enjoys going 4 days a week, the staff are so fun and caring towards the children, the children get upto loads of fun activities painting, messy play, outdoor adventures and playing on the race track! Sometimes they even venture to the local park and go on the swings and slides! Everyday parents are updated with how the child has got on and pictures are posted on our secure child's app, if there is any problems during the day the office calls and lets you know the situation! Overall we are pleased and happy our child has settled in with the nursery and team

Fantastic nursery, All the staff are friendly and helpful. Very good communication. My little one loves going to this nursery, she has come on leaps and bounds since starting. The environment seems very pleasant and welcoming to children and adults. Children have a wide range of activities daily.

Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School I highly recommend. My son went there for two years, now my daughter is attending. Both my children thoroughly thrived at this nursery and loved going. All the staff are so lovely especially one staff member in particular who has always been helpful and understanding with both my children. Another staff member deserves a special shout out especially who is always so kind and great especially with my daughter now. Also all the other staff. Highly recommend Shining Stars.

My child started at Shining Stars Nursery & Pre-School shortly after they turned 2 years old. They were going through a clingy stage and struggled to settle in. The nursery worked with us to find a settling in schedule which worked for our child which allowed them to form a trusting bond with the nursery workers. Our child runs in now and is his confident happy self and it's been so lovely to see him thrive socially and emotionally in this setting.

Shining Stars is a fantastic nursery. Our nearly 3-year-old has been there for a year. She has hearing loss and possibly some additional needs, she loves to go to nursery, she has formed a fantastic attachment to the staff there. They treat her individually and give her allocated time to help her with her sign language amd to help her speak. The staff are friendly and caring. We are always told about her day there and they have an in-depth understanding of what she needs as her communication is a struggle. I have recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they have meetings with us for our daughter's aims and goals for her development. As a rainbow family we feel accepted and happy and included in all aspects of nursery and themes ie Father's Day we have Grandfather's Day instead and this is inclusive for our daughter and for Mother's Day we have two cards. Our eldest child also goes to the holiday club here. Fab nursery

For any parent, one of the hardest decisions is finding the right nursery for your child, especially if your child will need that extra bit of help and support. I first viewed their website and just from looking I could see how passionate they are and are proud of what they do. It really shows in person too as the team are always full of smiles always so welcoming and has great energy. They really are the heart and soul of the nursery. They have always made sure my child is getting the right help and support and have always spared their time to make sure everything is in place for him. They have been the biggest support towards my son's education, and seeing him blossom because of their hard work is truly a joy to see. Any concerns or worries I have, they always spare time to sit and listen to me. Honestly, I can't praise Shining Stars enough for all their efforts and I'm so grateful my son is a part of an amazing nursery.

This nursery setting is the best in Malvern, they have helped my son grow so much, especially with the Senco team, and also learning about his rare genetic disorder. They have helped me too. Honestly, I don’t think my son would be going to mainstream school if it weren’t for the staff on helping push my son to achieve so much in the year he’s been with them. Hands down, the best setting in Malvern.

My daughter loves going to pre-school here every week. She is super excited when it is time to attend. She has learnt so much from the teams. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I love seeing how happy she is when I pick her up at the end of the day, knowing she is in good hands.

Fantastic, welcoming team where everyone feels so welcome! My daughter asks to go to nursery (even when we have just left!) Communication with the parents is brilliant and they treat every child's needs individually. My child's confidence has bloomed since starting and my older child is always desperate to come back for holiday club.

Absolutely lovely place. My daughter started just after she turned two with the funded hours allotted. She’s now completed her first year and without a doubt sending her to Shining Stars has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. Her key worker is her favourite person. She absolutely loves going to school. They do tons of crafts. The forest school lets the kids explore and get their hands dirty. She’s made great friends with the other kids. There was amazing communication with management. They even took the time to check on me throughout my pregnancy. I was worried with her being a pandemic baby about her socialisation but she’s flourished under their care. Thank you so much to the team!

My son started nursery in January 2023 and he loves it. All the staff are lovely. He's really developed and nursery has shaped him. It didn't take long for him to just walk in and not even say goodbye to either me or his dad. He's really happy there and it's a credit to all the staff and all the hard work they put in. He's always doing something new, whether it's a fun craft, cooking or playing. It's a fantastic nursery. I would highly recommend.

Our daughter has absolutely loved her time in the Baby Room - she is happy to go into the nursery in the mornings and always enjoys her days there. Staff are cheerful and caring, and we feel confident that she is well looked after there. Would definitely recommend.

We registered our son with Shining Stars earlier this year and have not looked back. It was the best decision we made. The staff are caring and are attentive to his needs. We have witnessed major development growth and believe it is mostly down to his time spent at Shining Stars. You can tell a lot of time goes into activities and events as there is something new happening each week, whether it's learning about history or cooking food! We are very happy with Shining Stars and would wholeheartedly recommend it.

All the team and managers are always very supportive of our particular needs. All the staff seem friendly and helpful. My son is always very happy when going in and coming out of nursery. Always seems a happy and nurturing place to be.

My daughter started in September. She had come from a small childminders so I was a little apprehensive, she’s not always taken to new people and settings very well. (We are currently waiting to see if she has autism.) Everyone put my mind at ease and my daughter went in well. All the staff have been amazing with her, they give her all the time she needs, always smiling and happy. On days she’s having a moment they are fantastic with her, they even call me to let me know she’s settled. They never rush either of us and always have time to speak to me if I have any question. She has come in leaps and bounds doing things we never thought she would do as she has other health conditions. I wouldn’t take her anywhere else and so glad I made the right choice.

Shining Stars Nursery offers so much for my son; they allow him to explore all new things outdoors/IN, fishing, baking, gardening, and even with songs, which have helped his speech. He enjoys all his time here, and we do too, for him.

My daughter went to this nursery for almost two whole years! Starting in the baby room and eventually moving on to the toddler room. After a few difficult weeks in the beginning transitioning, the staff made my daughter feel super welcome and safe, and eventually, she would go running in and not looking back! When my daughter moved into the toddler room, she very much enjoyed herself throughout her time at shining stars; however, one particular staff member that shone through for both myself and my daughter, and she was always super excited when she saw her and would talk continuously about her after days at nursery! This staff member went out of her way to collect all photographs of my daughter and put them into a card signed by all from Shining Stars for when she left. Lovely gestures like this really enabled us to close the chapter of this nursery positively and allow our memories to look back on! Thank you all at Shining Stars!
